speaking about MASH
I ran across this earlier today
last show of the TV series MASH was played this day feb 28th 1983 2.5 hour long episode. the show ran 11 seasons .
the show lasted longer than the War did and the last show pulled in 77 million viewers most ever up to that time

I was working afternoons back then and missed that episode. Caught it several years later in reruns. A great show IMO and I still watch it regularly on ME TV.

At that time I didn't know what an elitist *rick Alan Alda was.

Can't stand Alan Alda.

Lt. Col. Henry Blake was written out when his transport plane went down. I always thought it would have added to the last episode if he appeared out of the dust in the last scene, dressed like Robinson Caruso & asked, "Where'd everybody go?" Then walked away & faded out into the dust.

Watched MASH from the time it started. During my college years it was always on at 11 almost every night. Used to brew another pot of coffee and take a break from studying or work about then.. My bride and I ordered a pizza and watched the final episode. I also did not care much for some the characters or their politics and even less so now.

I don't what it is there is just something I didn't like about the show. It's kind of like Gomer Pyle USMC and Mayberry RFD, I just don't like that kind of stuff.
I guess its the libtard, lefty theme and how it makes a joke out of the seriousness of war.

It was a training ground for liberal up & coming TV stars with their slick anti-war messages broadcast to millions weekly, I have no use for'em.

I will add when I was watching MASH I was much younger and politics were just not something I thought about or cared about but looking back yes there was a lot of hollywerd underlying messages
going off what Sam posted I will add I watched hogans heroes way back when also I thought it made light of a terribe situation big time POW camps in general, but I guess it was accepted as a comedy and made fun of the German's making them look foolish is how it got by ?
I take all shows and movies with a grain of salt I just look at them as entrainment nothing more
one last thought Klinger
got to wonder if they knew our new WOKE military would use him as a example
I did hear him say in the show more than few times no I am not that way as in happy I am just trying to show I am crazy not happy

Word was.....that Stevenson, and later Rogers, left the series because......they got tired of being small parts of "The Alan Alda Show".
Who knows for sure........??
